Housing Justice is providing this one day training workshop on homelessness and related issues, which is particularly relevant for volunteers in homelessness agencies, churches and faith groups, concerned citizens and people new to working in the field.

Workshop contents: Role of the state and voluntary sector; homelessness law and local authority tests; mental health awareness; drugs and alcohol awareness; and boundaries/dealing with conflict.

A note about the cost: This workshop was previously offered free to members, but the changes at Housing Justice mean we now have to raise more income from our activities. However, we do not want anyone who volunteers with a church or smaller homelessness project to be prevented from accessing this training because of cost, so some bursaries are available for low/unwaged volunteers or people applying from unfunded churches or small organizations.
